It's been too long, there is too much to cover

The festivities began on December 22nd. We went to Midway and went tubing with cousins at Soldier Hollow. This would have been a more successful trip if Kate hadn't gotten snow in her eyes on the first run. Spencer and I had a good time, and Kate had a single run of good times. The next day we went up to the Clemens Manor and had a lovely time. These pictures were taken at my parents house. We stayed through Christmas Eve and left in the middle of a white out. Utah is a great place to celebrate Christmas, it's so wintry.



Spencer was able to track down a wii for the little girls and it was a big hit. Do you know how long it takes to set up miis for 11 people? We all were so engrossed that it didn't matter too much, until Natalie got a bit obsessive over her mii's eyebrows. Oh well. Here is a picture of my Mom falling over trying to do DDR. The rest of the pictures are just of the family, so people can see how much Nat, Hannah, Gabi, and Kate have grown. My Dad, Spencer, and Omar were definitely there, they've just gotten good at alluding the ever present camera. Oh and one of me with my huge tummy. Christian got to feel her kick!

I managed to forget our camera for Christmas morning shots. We spent the day at the Matt Jones house (Spencer's brother). Grandparents Jones were there, Mere and James, and a good time was had by all. Most everyone got to go sledding at Rock Canyon Park. I was reminded of when Spencer and I went sledding there while we were dating, little did we know at the time that we'd be back - with a few additions. I will post the appropriate pictures when I get them forwarded to me by people who can be trusted to bring their camera.

We had to set up mii's for every kid on our street and our entire family. It's a major time investment. Looks like a rockin' party!
